If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:

Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.

To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.

Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.
To learn more about the CreateDebate scoring system, check out the FAQ.

When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument.
If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.

Who was the WORST president of the United States?

Its too bad Obama hasn't been voted out of office yet; come November he will be my choice. Apart from him, I would definitely go with Lyndon Johnson. His unrelenting and infamous campaigns in Vietnam account for one of the worst times in United States history. Johnson also opposed anti-lynching legislation and supported a great number of anti-black positions. His Great Society program was horrendous for blacks and resulted in a huge amount of lazy citizens, a common theme in most socialist plans.

"And America is and always will be a superpower we owned everyone in WWII if it wasn't for us the Nazi's would have conquered the world."

You are a deluded idiot, if you can find any source that remotely suggests that "America is and always will be a superpower" I will admit that America is better than Britain (which it isn't by the way).

your the uneducated fucktard i agree that the u.s. helped alot but your just being one of those over patriotic idiots who probaby chants USA USA USA !!!!! if you think it was just the americans. the british, russia, and canada could have beaten the Nazis along with the other commonwealth countries of course without the usa helping at all

And America is and always will be a superpower we owned everyone in WWII

Are you historically retarded? FDR Worsened the depression and debt, the only reason America got better is because by the end of WWII most of the industrial world was in ruins and we were the last man standing, that is what got us out of the depression, not FDR's massive debt and government programs that failed to help.

This would be the same FDR that put millions into jobs, introduced the Social Security Act so that you don't have to work into your old age not to starve, and gave workers the right to form unions so that they couldn't be exploited by their greedy profit-driven employers? The FDR who actually started talking to the people through his "fire side chats" and was the same man who actually agreed to fight the Nazis in the first place? This is your choice of worst President? When Reagan wanted to put missiles in space and Johnson sent over 540,000 troops to Vietnam? When Nixon deliberately sabotaged peace talks with the VC to ensure his rise to power, then spent a whole other year attempting to end the violence again - not even to mention the Water Gate scandal? And Bush - Iraq??? How is it that Roosevelt is the worst out of these lot?

Got to be Lincoln for me. Sure he ended slavery, but that was at the cost of thousands of lives. He could have ended slavery in way that would have prevented the deaths of so many lives, it would have taken longer, yeah, but it would have been more beneficial.

His goal wasn't to end slavery; he spoke repeatedly on his desire not to end (but curtail, which was the first step in ending it at that point) slavery and his firm belief in the subjugation of the negro. His only immediate goal was to cripple the Southern economy, to which end he was willing to abridge all kinds of liberties and become a tyrannical shitlord.

Now I'm not one to complain about misspellings, but come on. I do not agree that he is a psycho, he correctly made the decision to respond to the atrocious 9/11 attacks. He did draw these wars out far too long, but starting them was not the problem. Most people don't treat him like a hero; his approval ratings near the end of his presidency were among the lowest ever recorded.
